" Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of the contest if the prize is a learn to draw tutorial when the only way to win it in the first place is to be able to draw? "
But I don't think the winner is going to be the best drawing out of all of them, it's all about just entering a submission.
I'll update this post in a second, I think I have all of the comic vine staff including will smith and norm if they're staff now or not they're in there. LOL Still trying to figure out what to have inferior ego doing.
I don't know what the deadline is but I am just entering for fun, I don't want any prizes.
@Tom Pinchuk: Thanks, I figured since I'm not as talented as most of the artists around here I might as well try to do something stylized. Plus trying to make lucy foxy was an experience. ;)
@Bruce Vain: Nah, you got to start it. You've got a larger stock of of clips than i do it seems. Plus i have dial-up and can't get away with too many tube clips. I'll put one or two in there until i can resolve my connection issues.
@Tom Pinchuk: * and hey, i'm allowed to go a little off-topic (really the question is when don't i post something random?). i'm working on a picture of you, lol. (sorry to the rest of the brass, but i only have room for one and Toms caricature fits the best. really i wish the deadline wasn't so soon so i could sculpt a wooden cane with all of your likenesses in totem pole style.)
Ahhh I see , gotcha. Then I guess I'll start it up then . I'll include old WCW stuff too.
and I agree with you I wish this contest wasn't so soon. I've had an idea of a montage pic I wanted to do of the faces of Comicvine , including the MAIN viners I always see so frequently. Like yourself as well CATMANEXE. I just haven't had the time to do it and I need more art supplies as well.

The irony! "
This is one of those graphic challenges where I REALLY wish I could draw 'traditional' art. It would have made things a LOT easier. I damn near ended up busting out the macoroni. I was working on a green lantern theme this weekend so I figured I'd extend it to the staff for this. Here's the Comic Vine Corp. Hope I got everyone right, other than Babs height there's not a lot to reference on vine of you guys. Don't worry, I kept your identities secret with the masks :)
started working on Babs today, good thing you guys zoom in on everyones faces in the videos lol it's really helping me a lot with your facial attributes. And I can never tell if G-man is like overweight, underweight so I'm going to leave him as is. this is all being drawn with the crappy mechanical pencils laying around at work. I'll have to take it home to fine tune that massive upper lip on G haha.
LOL I actually changed his face completely after going through some of Gmans photos. well that and while transporting it something smeared the pencils on his face. *UGH*
First off, I'm really sorry. I said I would do this thing, but I've had a lot more on my plate than expected in this deadline, particularly the plumber finally showed up and I really want my toilet working.
But I'm a man of my word. Unfortunately due to time heavy time constraints I had to scribble this in a couple seconds (I'm ticklish as well). So, here's my worst possible rendition of Tom Pinchuck.
Yes! Yes! I finally have Tom in my armpit! That's the reason I smell so nice!
Well, it's not a Rembrandt, but don't you just love it?! ( I increased the contrast because i knew you wanted to see every detail;) ) Your going to hang this on your wall and print it on t-shirts, yes?
@CATMANEXE: wow, now there would have been a chance to get some cool stink line effects in there. I'm not even gonna ask how hard it was drawing that where you did, I can only imagine. Someone out there is gonna end up getting a Tom tat idea in there head.
Okay here's my entry I call it: The Justice League of Comicvine (JLC) yup
Justice League of Comicvine I wanted to do more but i dont think ill have time by monday. i also wanted to color it but im really not that good at that soooooo that DVD would do wonders lol but it was fun anyway. but ill update if i do do more
@senorsausage: lol. thanks. my mother was really happy that i asked here to photograph it for me. her exact words were " What the hell is wrong with you. " when mom's say that they're saying they love you.
@tonis: oh the stink lines are there, there just invisible. complex to do because it was a little over thirty degree's in my room so I was shaking. it went bad and i was kind of surprised since i pulled off a real full sized lettered tattoo on my stomach already with a sewing needle and never shook. i guess pits work differently.
@mjc1403: nice. including comics in the picture gives it the Flag Of Comicvine appeal.
@mjc1403: killer rendition and great homage to the league and the staff. @CATMANEXE: you are made of steel my friend, and based on your mom theory then mine must REALLY love me cause she says that almost every day.
@CATMANEXE: If nothing else, no one can't say that isn't 100% original! Funny and very inventive. @tonis: Again I am so impressed with your computer art. Wish we could see more than one shot of it, it got cut off a bit. I like the costumes, they rock. Impressive!! @mjc1403: Frikkin' Swweeeettttt. Awesome. You are too hard on yourself. I love it.
@Krhunt: First, that rocks. I love it, its real good. Great expressions on the faces of everyone!
Second, I have that same problem. The only thing I can say is when you upload a drawing, hit the "Small" or "Medium" button.
Users will click on the image and hopefully it will show up right, and people can see it larger. Doesn't always work, though. Wish I could figure it out as well, one of the problems I have.
@Decept-O: Thx Decept-O, if you want to see the full original size that I made it in I put it in my Heroes gallery under my images. It's looks cool when it comes slamming down on the zoom, wish it had a sound effect.
@tonis: Thanks. Just checked it, and yup, after a slight bit of a wait, the image did indeed come slamming down. I agree, it would have been real cool to have sound FX with it, but it is still a great piece, I really like it.
@mjc1403 : hahaha love your work on inferiorego dude, haha so cash.
some more teasers should have it finished tomorrow night, I had to trace it onto bristol board since the crappy printer paper at work hates erasers and ruined the original.
@CATMANEXE: thnx just thought the comics made sense....and did you notice i threw one of my favorite ones in there by name @tonis: thnx also thought about goin with the X-men but im more a of DC guy @Decept-O: thnx @Om1kron: lol thnx he just screamed green lantern to me
Alrighty, I couldn't pass this up. Decided to go out of my normal element, then added the bubbles for fun on my computer. Some of you may pick up on the fact that this kinda resembles a scene from Batman Returns, that's cause it does.
This is my entry for The Outrageous "Draw Comic Vine's Staff" Championship and below is it posted bigger It was a little hard trying to draw everyone with very little photo reference. But I hope I did a good enough job.
